The Partnership for Structural Biology
A Great Environment for Great Science
The Partnership for Structural Biology (PSB) in Grenoble is a collaborative research initiative established by a Memorandum of Understanding in 2002. The PSB brings together several major European research institutes to advance the field of structural biology: the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL), the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF), the Institut de Biologie Structurale (IBS), and the Institut Laue Langevin (ILL), all located on the European Photon and Neutron (EPN) campus.
